SV: [AT] Mattias at Portland

[Larry D. Goss]

I just browsed through the Ireland section of the "Encyclopedia of Wine,
Beer, and Spirits", Cecil.  I'm doing a little "research" prior to my
upcoming trips to Denmark, Poland, and Ireland.  They do list things
other than Guinness and Murphy's.  I'll compile a list for you a little
later.  I think the encyclopedia was a Christmas present from my SIL
this last year.  I haven't taken the time to look at it much, but just
happened to be going through sections of it a few minutes ago.

Not long ago I stopped at the tavern to buy some beer on the way home.
The Mexican fella in front of me was buying Molson, I bought Stella
Artoris (Belgium) and the local Russian gunsmith was drinking a Bass ale
at the bar.  It is truely a global economy when alcohol is involved here
in the old mixing pot.  Of course, during the NASCAR race and Bud is a
dollar a bottle not much Bass is on the table!

	I like all kinds of beers and have tried about all I could find
from
time to time. I still like good American beers the best.  Foreign beers
are
OK for a change but I always keep going back to the good stuff.

	Lucille and I are going to Ireland in November with a group from
here.
I understand there are some good dark Irish beers over there. I know a
couple
people that live in our area who immigrated from Ireland within the last
25
years or so and I'll have to ask them before I go.  They must make
something
besides that good Irish whiskey.
